We all know that you forget about time when you are in flow, because you become so immersed in the activity that you don’t even think about how long it is taking. The opposite, checking the time more often as you are waiting, makes time seem to go slower simply because you are paying more attention to it. You are COGNIZANT of time, and so, if you dedicade more cognition to it, you are more cognizant of it, and more cognition of time means a “slower experienced time”.
